Zacatecas...on Diversey just east of Laramie. I'm not sure if they deiver. Angelos on Montrose...it's italian/mexican, they would fax you a menu and yes I think they deliver.

Thinking about Montrose, it would be good for you to take a stroll East of Cicero all the way to Kedzie. There are about a million mexican places there now and I'm sure many of them deliver.

Los Rosales is pretty decent, on Damen south of Armitage.

Mamacita's on either Broadway north of Belmont or Southport below the Music Box is our current favorite.

We used to frequent La Canasta on Webster but grew tired.

Pablo's Cafe on Oakley around Belmont & Western have been recommended to us but we've not yet tried it.

Las Cazuelas, right on Elston just north of Lawrence, is more of a nice sit-down place than a taqueria, but the food is great and the place is beautiful.  You might have seen it - it looks like a glassed-in gazebo or atrium.

For quick takeouts, we go to Torero on Irving Park and Monticello (1 block east of Irving/Elston).  I don't think they deliver, though.  We live about 2 blocks from C Manny's - we'll have to check them out. Diane

I'll second Diane's mention of LAS CAZUELAS.  They had some unusual things on the menu, even for my pallete of 40 years eating mexican food.  Definitely no taqueria, they use nice china and settings and linen on the tables.  I was there on Cinco de Mayo and had Pato en Mole (duck in mole sauce)
